Full description
Try the incredible experience of sailing aboard an almost 100-year-old sailing ship. You will discover the wonders that characterise the Gulf of Orosei, in a wild yet at the same time among the most beautiful scenery in Italy.
You will set sail from Cala Gonone to discover the coast's most beautiful beaches and caves along the 'Selvaggio Blu' route.
Sailing aboard an ancient and prized sailing vessel in the clear, unspoilt waters of Sardinia will make this a unique and exciting day out.
What we will do
The meeting is set for 9.30 am at the port of Cala Gonone, one hour before departure. After getting to know the crew and settling in on the sailing boat, we will depart at 10.30 a.m. for Cala Luna.
After that, we will head towards Cala Sisine, where we will arrive after about an hour of sailing. We will continue on to Cala Biriala, a delightful little pinkish-coloured beach, and after a short while we will be ready for our first dive at the Piscine di Venere.
The sailing ship will drop anchor and it will be possible to swim in the emerald-coloured water. After about forty minutes of sailing, we will set course for Cala Mariolu (or Cala dei Gabbiani, depending on sea conditions. We will make a stop here for about two hours where we can refresh ourselves on the beach with our packed lunch (not included in the fee).
We will then arrive at the base of the Aguglia, an imposing elongated rock that rises solitarily from the sea, and admire the spectacular natural arch of Goloritze. A little further north, we will stop to reach - by rubber dinghy - the mouth of a hidden cave and experience the thrill of a dive surrounded by plays of light in a crazy setting.
Once back on board, the sailboat will reverse course and move a little further out to sea: if we are lucky, it will be the right time to spot dolphins. One last swim awaits us before we return to port at 17:30/18:00.
